Carrier Class airMAX ™ BaseStation 1 Introduction Introduction Thank you for purchasing a Rocket Series product. This Quick Start Guide is for use with the following model: ModelOperating Frequency Rocket M55.25 - 5.6 GHz and 5.65 - 5.85 GHz Package Contents Rocket M5Metal Strap24V PoE Adapter Carrier Class AirMAX ™ BaseStation Power CordQuick Start Guide Installation Requirements • Antenna needs to have clear line of sight to the sky. • Shielded Category 5 (or above) cabling should be used for all wired Ethernet connections and should be grounded through the AC ground of the PoE. We recommend that you protect your networks from the most brutal environments and devastating ESD attacks with industrial-grade shielded Ethernet cable from Ubiquiti Networks. For more details, visit www.ubnt.com/toughcable 2 Rocket ™ M5 Hardware Overview Antenna Connectors Removable Cover Ethernet Port USB Port Note: The USB port is reserved for future use. 3 Hardware Overview LEDs Power The Power LED will light steady green when the Rocket M5 is connected to a power source. Ethernet The Ethernet LED will light steady green when an active Ethernet connection is made to the Ethernet port and flash when there is activity. Signal The first Signal LED is lit when the wireless signal strength is above -94 dBm, the second LED when the wireless signal strength is above -80 dBm, the third LED when the wireless signal strength is above -73 dBm, and the fourth LED when the wireless signal strength is above -65 dBm. Note: By default, the Signal LEDs represent the wireless signal strength with default threshold values. In the airOS interface, you can modify the threshold values for each LED. The settings can be configured on the Advanced tab under Signal LED Thresholds. 4 Rocket ™ M5 Connecting the Rocket M5 1. Connect the RF cables to the connectors labeled Chain 0 and Chain 1 on the Rocket M5. 2. Slide the Rocket M5 on to the antenna mount. Mounting on a Dish AntennaMounting on a Sector Antenna 5 Connecting the Rocket M5 3. Attach the RF cables from the Rocket M5 to the connectors on the antenna. Connecting to a Dish AntennaConnecting to a Sector Antenna 6 Rocket ™ M5 Connecting Power over Ethernet 1. Remove the port cover by lifting the release latch on the bottom of the Rocket M5 and sliding the cover off. 2. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port and to the Ethernet port labeled POE on the PoE Adapter. 7 Connecting Power over Ethernet 3. Connect an Ethernet cable from your LAN to the Ethernet port labeled LAN on the PoE Adapter. 4. Connect the power cord to the power port on the PoE Adapter. Connect the other end of the power cord to a power outlet. 5. Replace the port cover. 8 Rocket ™ M5 airOS Confirmation Verify connectivity in the airOS interface. 1. Make sure that your host machine is connected via Ethernet to the Rocket M5. 2. Configure the Ethernet adapter on your host system with a static IP address on the 192.168.1.x subnet. 3. Launch your Web browser and type http://192.168.1.20 in the address field. Press enter (PC) or return (Mac). 4. The login screen will appear. Enter ubnt in the Username and Password fields. Select your Country and Language. You must agree to the Terms of Use to use the product. Click Login. Note: U.S. product versions are locked to the U.S. Country Code to ensure compliance with FCC regulations. The airOS Interface will appear, allowing you to customize your settings as needed. Installer Compliance Responsibility Devices must be professionally installed and it is the professional installer's responsibility to make sure the device is operated within local country regulatory requirements. 9 Specifications Since Ubiquiti Networks equipment can be paired with a variety of antennas and cables, the Antenna Gain, Cable Loss, and Output Power fields are provided to the professional installer to assist in meeting regulatory requirements.

Read, follow, and keep these instructions. 2. Heed all warnings. 3. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer. WARNING: Do not use this product in location that can be submerged by water. WARNING: Avoid using this product during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning. Electrical Safety Information 1. Compliance is required with respect to voltage, frequency, and current requirements indicated on the manufacturer’s label. Connection to a different power source than those specified may result in improper operation, damage to the equipment or pose a fire hazard if the limitations are not followed. 2. There are no operator serviceable parts inside this equipment. Service should be provided only by a qualified service technician. 3. This equipment is provided with a detachable power cord which has an integral safety ground wire intended for connection to a grounded safety outlet. a. Do not substitute the power cord with one that is not the provided approved type. Never use an adapter plug to connect to a 2-wire outlet as this will defeat the continuity of the grounding wire. b. The equipment requires the use of the ground wire as a part of the safety certification, modification or misuse can provide a shock hazard that can result in serious injury or death. c. Contact a qualified electrician or the manufacturer if there are questions about the installation prior to connecting the equipment. 11 General Warranty General Warranty UBIQUITI NETWORKS, Inc (“UBIQUITI NETWORKS”) represents and warr…
